WINTER RFSORTERS.

The tide Of winter resortefs have
not come in this direction as former
ly. 1t is said that cheap excursion
rates to California is the inducement
in that direction. IF the railroads
leading to California can afford to
lower their passenger rates, and are
compensated by the increased travel,
the railroads leading to Georgia and
Florida are very foolish, it seems to
US, not to meet these cut rates and
give as cheap fare, and thus put a
stop to the loss of Northern and
Western people going elsewhere.
This will prove serious matter if
neglected, and We urge the railroads
to action at once. Hundreds Of thou
sands of dollars will be lost to Flori-
ia and Georgia annually if Caliior-
MIA takes from us this people who
come south every winter to escape
the severe climate Of their Northern
homes.

Beggars of Old.

In many. parish books, about 800 years
ago, we find such entries as these "Payd
for whippin tow pore folk, ido "Payd
aud given to pore man and his wifi that
was whipped, iiijd" This was double the
usual tariff, which is represented by "Gave
the tow when they went, i'd" In Saxon
times the beggar, unless he found refuge
in one of the then thinly-scattered mon
asteries, was in evil case. He belonged to
the dangerous tribe of masterless men,
people for whom no one was answerable,
and those who sheltered him were fain to
do it by stealth, for if man staid with
you more than a couple of days you were
accountable, not only for anything he
might then do, but also for his antece-
dents. Mr.. Ribton Turner thinks race
had good deal to do with beggary. When
you take away mans means of life he
must either starve or rob or beg. The
oldest natives of Great Britain were short,
dark people-Basquee, say some, Esqui-
mau, say others the tall, light-haired
Gael beat them out from almost every
where except parts of South Wales Then
the Cymri, another Celtic people, came
across from the Cimbric Cherson-
ese (Denmark), landed in Aberdeen,
spread over Scotland as Picts, and coming
southwark were met by the tide of Saxon
or (as the new lights prefer to call it,
English invasion, and turned aside into
Wales. What the round-skulled Gael had
done to the short, long-skulled people
who preceded him the Saxon did to the
Gael. He took his titled land from him !;
IN those days it was not much, nine-tenths
of the island being forest and marsh, and
he gave him no chance of settling near
him and bringing in some of the wild
country. That was not done till later,
when the monasteries (true agricultural
eolonies) set the example of making the
desert smile. The conquered had nothing
for it but to submit to slavery or to move
on" If he moved ON with lot of friends
he might settle down somewhere in Wales
or on the Cornish moors or in the wild
district called Cumbria (Cymri's Land),
from Chester to the Solway. But there
would generally be somebody to turn out,
so, if he was alone or with few, begging
or robbing (the two were interchangeable
was his only resource-AH the Year Roand.
